[Hokage] Yuko Yamaguchi

I first met Miss Yuko Yamaguchi in the summer when I was 16 years old.

At that time, I had just been promoted to Konoha Jonin, very young, still a teenager, ignorant and somewhat impulsive.

That was the first time I served as the team leader for an A-level task. The team members in the same team were Xiao Li and Tian Tian.

It is already deep summer, and autumn is about to enter, the weather is brisk, the sky is clear, and there is no sultry heat.

Our group quickly arrived at Kyoto, the most prosperous place in the Land of Fire, where the Yamaguchi family, a well-known drug dealer in the Land of Fire, settled down.

Noisy market place, noisy and dense crowd, continuous stream of vehicles, extravagant and romantic places.

Unlike the life of ninja swords and swords, the struggles and contests here are never on the bright side.

The secretive ninja is good at ambush in the dark to subdue the enemy with one blow, but the killing in the business field is bloody without corpses.

Until now, I still remember the details of this task.This is not only because of Ms. Yuko, but also because of the growth of my own mind.

To this day, it still benefits me a lot.

The residence of the Yamaguchi family is located in the busiest Banchu Street in Kyoto.

The mansion runs in a north-south direction as a whole, and is divided into two large courtyards, front and rear. Numerous branch paths connect small courtyards that are scattered like star rocks. If you don't pay attention, you will get lost. This is the consistent style of big families.

The overall style of the mansion is very traditional, with Japanese-style Japanese-style buildings, high-grade forests, and ingenious layout.Japanese red maples, mosses and pine trees are planted in the courtyard. Every plant and tree has been carefully cut and trimmed. It is very poetic, solemn and simple.

I always thought that only the rigid Hyuga House continued the oldest architectural style, but I didn't expect that the Yamaguchi family, which is famous all over the world for their business, also has an old traditional style in their bones.

It's just that there are too many private guards in this family.

On the wall and among the branches, there are dense layers of black shadows, like a cloud of black clouds, covering the huge courtyard, making it suffocating.Even in daimyo mansions, royal families and nobles, there are no more than a hundred private guards, but the Yamaguchi family's secret guards are less than a thousand, which is too weird.

Seeing this situation, we can't help but wonder whether there is a possibility that the enemy will kill us in this mission.

I always feel that the entire Yamaguchi family is like a bomb filled with gunpowder, just waiting for the fragile engine to be ignited by a match, and it will explode completely, and finally fall apart.

I seem to have forgotten to explain, the specific content of this mission is to help the Yamaguchi family send a batch of treasures to each other to dedicate to the son of the fire country daimyo - Genji.Only because of the involvement of political core figures, this most common B-level task was upgraded to A-level by exception.

At first, I was also quite contemptuous - if a businessman wants to make a fortune, political help is indispensable, and the extravagant life of a big name requires a lot of money to maintain. This is a chain of links and mutual use relation.

As for the Yamaguchi family, the status of the drug dealer predators today is naturally inseparable from the usual care for the royal family.Things in the field of human relations seem to be far away from my days of swords and swords, but I have seen more employers in the past few years, so I naturally understand a little bit.

Besides, I was originally from a branch of the Hinata family, so for such a shady matter, I was inevitably one of the members of the center of the whirlpool.Just like the curse mark of a caged bird on my forehead, everyone in the big family is just a pawn in the hands of a schemer. What is playing on the whole chessboard is the interests and glory of the whole family in the overall situation. No one can hide past.

This is the tragic fate of a big family.

So, when I first met Miss Yuko Yamaguchi, I wasn't too surprised.

The old woman who led the way was well-bred, always respectful, and never said much.She told us - Miss Yuko is waiting for us in the main hall.

The main hall, that is the very center of the entire mansion, is guarded by thousands of secret guards, and is the highest symbol of the Yamaguchi family's power.She was waiting for us there, and suddenly, Hinata-sama's meek and humble face flashed in my mind.

Hiroko Yamaguchi, please allow me to be ignorant, I have never heard of such a character in the Yamaguchi family.

Since ancient times, the political and business circles have undoubtedly been dominated by men, just like the swords around the waists of princes and nobles, which are just another possession of power and wealth, used for embellishment.If there is a woman who is slightly top-notch, it must be a new one that will be published on the headlines of the newspaper.Or, this lady has always kept a low profile, acting as a man under a pseudonym.Even though she is in power, she is still a puppet, which is not impossible.

I guessed in my heart, and when I raised my eyes, I came to the door of the main hall.

Xiao Li was obviously very excited, and even shouted his youth declaration at the door a little noisyly, which provoked violent beatings every day.The old woman repeatedly emphasized not to speak too much after entering the house, and when she saw us nodding in agreement, she knocked on the door lightly, announcing her intention of coming.

A respectful maid came out and opened the door, and welcomed us in. Only then did we meet the mysterious Miss Yuko Yamaguchi.

Entering the room, there is an ordinary wooden coffee table with simple and elegant decoration.A screen embroidered with small orchids, Yuanshandai, is horizontal in the room, blocking most of the scene.The floor made of mahogany reflects the cold light, and a graceful woman is sitting and waiting behind the screen, apparently she has been waiting for a long time.

It is etiquette that the daughters of rich families do not allow their daughters who are not out of the cabinet to openly meet outsiders. I understand this truth, and seeing Xiao Li and Tian Tian are very confused, I explained it to them in sign language.

The woman behind the screen was the first to break the silence, her voice was like an orchid in an empty valley, making people wonder how gentle and beautiful she looks.

"Everyone, it's really hard to come all the way from Konoha. My name is Yuko Yamaguchi. My father is away temporarily due to business. I have to take care of all the big and small matters in the house. I may be incompetent. Please forgive me."

After all, she bent down and saluted, and we followed suit.

Yuko said again: "For the next few days, please stay at the mansion. I have arranged the guest rooms for you. Later, a maid will take you to familiarize yourself with the courtyard. If there is anything you need, please give me instructions directly. Please." Don't be polite, be polite."

We politely agreed, and she asked again: "Excuse me, do you have any questions to ask? If there is anything I haven't explained clearly about the task, you can directly ask it."

Xiao Li and God □□□I winked, I summed up the language, and decided to test her tone again before asking questions.

I first gave a brief self-introduction: "Hello, Ms. Yuko, I am the captain of this mission, Ningji Hinata. These two are Tiantian and Xiaoli. We will ensure the safety of the goods during this mission."

Yuko nodded and greeted everyone.

Xiao Li and Tian Tian were obviously a little cramped. They were really not used to such an occasion, and they all looked at me for help.

I went straight to the point and said, "Excuse me, do the Yamaguchi clan have any enemies or are there any ninjas or thieves in Kyoto recently?"

"Although the Yamaguchi family has been in business for many years, they have never accumulated any enmity with anyone. You can rest assured about this. As for the thieves and Ronin, their whereabouts are elusive, and they are really elusive. Please be on guard for me."

Yuko's answer seemed reasonable, but after careful consideration, he felt that it was slightly biased.Since there is no enemy, why do you keep a large number of secret guards in the house to protect your family? And Kyoto is at the foot of the daimyo, the law and order has always been good, thieves and ninjas often appear in the countryside, why do you still tell yourself to be on guard.

Unless, the destination of these treasures is not Kyoto, but the outskirts.Or, the current political situation is turbulent, and the Yamaguchi family has messed with unspeakable characters!

I have thought about it.Sure enough, apart from me, Tsunade-sama really has no other suitable candidate for such a cumbersome and complicated big family task.

I continued to ask, "I don't know, when will Ms. Yuko arrange for Zhenbao to leave?"

After hearing this, she suddenly trembled a little.Even the slightest movement can't escape my white eyes.

I opened my eyes and looked directly at her.There is no trace of chakra flowing in the meridians of ordinary people, but the frequency of her heartbeat has completely exposed her mind - she is nervous and afraid.

What is it that is going to be escorted that makes a well-clothed and wealthy daughter so terrified.

My doubts deepened.

After a long time, she calmed down, as if she was trying her best to endure something, and said, "Probably...it will be two days later, and I will let you know in advance."

"Then wait for your order."

We saluted and came out slowly from the main hall, Xiao Li and Tian Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

The attendant led us to the guest room where we lived. This place is not close to Ms. Yuko's residence.

The whole family was lifeless and there were few males. It was like the night on the sea before the storm, calm but full of dangers.

With many doubts, we finally waited until the day of departure.

The pit was opened, and the setting was love at first sight.
